访谈详情

1. 您为什么选择从事相关的领域研究?

I also chose this field because Materials Science is inherently interdisciplinary. It brings together metallurgy, mechanics, manufacturing, physics, chemistry, computation, and increasingly artificial intelligence. This provides an exciting platform for addressing emerging challenges such as lightweighting, energy efficiency, decarbonization, advanced manufacturing, and sustainable technologies.
My association with Materials Research Express is a natural extension of this journey. I see scientific publishing as an important means of strengthening the materials research community by promoting rigorous, impactful, and application-oriented research and by encouraging young researchers to contribute to the advancement of the field.

 

2. 您目前从事的研究工作有哪些?

My research has focused on lightweight structural materials, particularly magnesium and aluminium alloys, advanced high-entropy alloys, coatings, sustainable materials, and materials for automotive, aerospace, energy, and biomedical applications.

3. 您认为五年后该领域的研究重点将会是什么?

I believe the research focus in Materials Science over the next five years will increasingly be on sustainable, lightweight, and high-performance materials, driven by the needs of energy, mobility, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing. There will be strong emphasis on AI/ML-assisted materials discovery, advanced manufacturing, circularity and recycling, and low-carbon processing.

 

4. 是什么吸引您加入Materials Research Express期刊编委团队?

I see this as an opportunity to contribute to maintaining high-quality, impactful research and to support emerging researchers in the materials community. It would also be a valuable platform to engage with new developments and researchers across the global materials science community.

 

5. 您认为像Materials Research Express这样的期刊对领域的发展有什么重要影响?

Journals like Materials Research Express play an important role in advancing the field by providing a platform for disseminating new ideas, discoveries, and emerging technologies in materials science.
